Thursday021 Archivesa big day for history buffs and conspiracy theorists as the federal government will finally unleash thousands of previously unreleased documents relating to the JFK assassination, all in part of the deadline set in 1992 by the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act.

One person who probably isn't looking forward to the release of the records, though, is U.S. Senator Ted Cruz. Or, at the very least, Cruz is dreading the annoying jokes that are being made at his expense.

At the end of the GOP primary race for the presidential nomination — which feels like 10 lifetimes ago but was, in fact, just last May — Cruz was blindsided when Trump suggested during a Fox News interview that his father, Rafael, was spotted in cahoots with Kennedy's assassin Lee Harvey Oswald just days before the shooting.

The report was sourced to the National Enquirer,so the story was taken with a grassy knoll-sized grain of salt.

Cruz wasn't thrilled about the whole thing, especially coming as he made his last ditch effort to block Trump's runaway train of momentum, but he tried to keep a sense of humor about it.

Now, with the release of more files, the jokes and references to this theory are cropping up again. Cruz is trying to roll with it, but a hint of annoyance seems to be trickling in.

His "over it!" vibes were also detectable when he was caught by TMZat an airport, being a good sport about most of the questions before calling it a day at the end when the JFK question comes up.

Or maybe he's just annoyed by TMZbugging him after a long flight.

Still, the rest of the internet isn't letting the opportunity to joke about this again pass it by.

The only thing we can do now is wait and keep refreshing the National Archives' JFK website over and over and get our search fingers ready.
